About The Little Gym
With more than 300 locations across the globe, The Little Gym is the world's premier enrichment and physical development center for children ages 4 months through 12 years. For nearly five decades, we've helped millions of kids experience the thrill of achievement, build new skills, and find new confidence through gymnastics-based programming in a safe, nurturing, and fun environment.
About This Opportunity
This is a ground-floor leadership role at a brand-new location in Bloomfield Hills, one of Michigan's most vibrant and family-forward communities. You won't be inheriting someone else's gym. You'll be building the culture, the team, and the membership base from day one. That's a rare opportunity, and we're looking for someone who sees it that way.
You'll report directly to the owners and have real ownership over the outcomes that matter: enrollment growth, member retention, staff development, and community presence.
What You'll Do
You'll have the stability of a globally recognized brand, the support of hands-on ownership, and the rare opportunity to shape a new location in a community that values exactly what we offer. If you want a job, there are easier ones. If you want to build something meaningful, we'd love to meet you!
This position is temporarily remote.
All associated locations are independently owned and operated by a franchisee. Your application will go directly to the franchise, and all hiring decisions will be made by the management of that franchise. All inquiries about employment at this franchise should be made directly to the franchisee, and not to The Little Gym Franchising Corporate.
